I actually don’t think it’s that hard to be a good friend so I’m not interested in telling someone how to be one, you can practice on someone else respectfully😭
Artists, I'm begging y'all to keep your prices visible even when your comms are closed. Some people like to save up & put money aside for when you DO open up & that becomes incredibly difficult when clients have no clue how much they should be putting aside in the first place.
I actually love taking accountability because yes, I did say that and I’ll gladly tell you why I said it. 😭 Taking responsibility doesn’t mean I have to pretend there wasn’t a reason behind my actions.
We have to remind ourselves that we are not responsible for how other people choose to treat us. Their manipulation, gaslighting, cruelty or lack of kindness belongs to them, not you. What belongs to you is how you respond. Set your boundaries, protect your peace and don’t let someone else’s behavior turn you into a version of yourself you don’t recognise. You can acknowledge what hurt you without letting it harden the beautiful soul you are.
